Start a chapter

Your state is still dark.

45 states and territories still have no chapter. Founding one is the single highest-leverage thing you can do for this cause.

What a chapter does

Turn support into signatures.

A chapter is a small student team that runs registration drives and campus education where they live. The argument for donation is already won — ~90% of people support it. Chapters close the gap between that support and an actual documented decision, one drive at a time.

Who can start one

Probably you.

One committed student lead (you) — a founding team helps, but isn't required to apply.
A campus, school, or county community you can organize a registration drive in.
A few hours a month. Chapters run on momentum, not on burnout.
That's it. No prior nonprofit experience, no budget — we bring the playbook.
